they are going to forget about all of the dumb stuff mitt romney said. tavis: unless he keeps saying dumb stuff. >> i think this could get close, and here is the point that you and i agree on. the worst thing the president can do is undercut his credibility by not looking like a man of the people, which he truly is compared to romney. it makes the other 99% think they are not part of the process, so all of the people were excited about a bomb in 2008, it is depressing. "do i bother? it is not about me anymore." it is a terrible thing to do, but it is also important to win the election do not touch this money. tavis: i have got two months. the whole nation is watching wisconsin. tell me what is going to happen with the scott walker situation and about labornion across the country. you tell me. >> we are going to finish the job. governor walker was sworn in and without notification, he attacked the people. we are the first to have collective bargaining for public employees. we have hundreds of thousands of people protesting at the state capital, but they d

>> the romney camp has been trying to sell since last june that i should get out of the race and romney is inevitable. romney is probably the weakest frontrunner since wood in 1920 and he ultimately lost on the 109 ball -- 10th ballot. he has a challenge. he wins ohio. he gets 38 percent of the vote. places where nobody else can compete because of money. guam he does fine. over all he reports a victory. wyoming 40 percent of the vote. he loses kansas outright. the most he will get in mississippi and alabama is probably a third he's more likely to get 25 or 28 percent. yes he's a frontrunner not a very strong frontrunner. almost all conservatives are opposed to him which is the base of the party. i think we are as likely to see after the last primary in june we are likely to see a 60 day conversation about what is going to happen as we are to see romney dominating. in that context i think the vote that i got remembering that i was in first place both in december and again in mid january in terms of the gallop poll. i think there's a space for a visionary conservative with big solutions l
